"No matter what time it is, some people cannot get enough food. You should have seen that the bark and grass roots near my territory have been eaten up"

However, although the adult's expression remained normal, he didn't say much.Sometimes even no head.Garvey couldn't help but become more cautious.

However, although the lord didn't talk much, he seemed to be a little curious about the management method of this territory.And Garvey, who has been watching his face, also said something about the territory.

Here, going out is always a collective action, and no one is allowed to go out alone.Some of the harvested things will belong to the individual, and the rest will be handed over.But if it's a loot, you can keep some more.

In addition, almost every resident has their own field. They can obtain part of the output of these fields, but most of them are used to pay taxes and it can be seen that the tax is very heavy.

If one year I was unlucky and the field I was in charge of didn't produce much, then not only would I not have anything to eat, but those people who couldn't hand in their things would also be kicked out directly.

Even hanged.

But very few people would voluntarily leave this shelter.This is true even if the soldiers will deliberately turn a blind eye.

Because in this safe zone, at least there are no monsters, and at least there is still a little order and a chance to survive.

This makes many people would rather starve to death inside, or even pick up weapons and go out with the team to fight desperately, rather than leave here

I don't know how long I walked around, the footsteps of the bishop slowly stopped, Garvey, who had been watching his words, followed his casual gaze, and saw someone walked outside a shed, and took the basket in his hand. The child, put it next to the sundries at the door.

At this moment, the two dull-faced adults seemed to have a hint of emotion in their eyes, but then, the man put another basket at the door on his back, and left without looking back.

Looking at the bishop's eyes that were getting colder, Garvey suddenly felt something was wrong, he raised his head, followed his gaze, and saw a child popping out of the basket behind the man.

With a bang, Garvey's scalp exploded. He has been exhorting thousands of times these days, but there are still such mistakes.

He slapped fiercely, and slapped a passing guard captain beside him, and shouted angrily, "Your military discipline is too lax!"

The sergeant major had led a group of people past with his head held high, and was about to show off in front of the lord.He was immediately slapped in place.Before he covered his face and reacted, the baron had already turned his gaze to a knight beside him, "Pull these idiots down to whip Kodor, and you take someone to stop that man just now."

"Didn't I distribute food today? How could this happen?"

The group of people who were guarding around immediately moved up in a panic amidst the sound of steel clashing,

They could see that the lord was really angry. He had said for two days that the bishop would come.However, this omission still occurred.If it is not the lack of people now, put it in the past.The watchman must be hanged outside the castle.

Not long after, there was a noise in the distance, and then a man was dragged by the hair of the soldiers and dragged in front of the lord.

The basket behind him was put back to its original position, and a knight was carefully hugging the child, trying his best to show a caring look.

This person seemed to have been severely beaten, but those soldiers who vented their anger were very clever, making him roll on the ground in pain, but did not hurt his bones.It can be seen that these soldiers seem to be very good at this kind of teaching.

They were angry, but not because of the kid.It's this short-sighted guy who has to get himself into trouble today.

The Templar Commander named Martin said before that the Holy See pays close attention to the living conditions of the people in various regions.

In the hands of the bishop, he is holding their food and controlling the distribution of resources in each territory.

At least, they think so

0105 almost

Everyone was secretly watching the expression of that lord, but there was no change in his expression.It seemed as if he was watching someone else handle his own family affairs, which made Garvey feel his scalp explode, not knowing what he meant.

He bite the bullet and inquired about the person crawling and kneeling on the ground, and learned that he did receive some food, and he also got some when he went out before.But because I owed a lot of taxes, I paid them all.

And the old mother and wife in his family were about to starve to death, and they hadn't eaten for three days.

After hearing this answer, Baron Garvey only felt a chill down his back, he didn't dare to turn his head, and he didn't dare to breathe, he just felt that time seemed to stand still.

Until he heard the lord next to his ears sigh softly. The Lord of the Riverside was once famous for his wealth in the whole valley. There are also [-] to [-] mu of fields for harvesting grain, and there are about a hundred of them under the control of the knights alone, which is more than ten times richer than Johannes.But now his people have fallen to this point.

The bishop sighed, and this sigh made the breath in Garvey's chest slightly relieved.

"My lord, I admit that the taxation in my territory is indeed heavy, and I did not take good care of my people." Baron Garvey wiped the corners of his eyes, as if there were tears in his eyes. He shook his head and said sadly, "Like What happened today, although I have expressly prohibited it, this situation does exist in the territory."

But then, there was a hint of firmness and determination in his words, "But I can't reduce the tax, and I can't distribute all the stored food to all the people. My soldiers need to eat and the people need to eat." Soldiers support the safety of this territory"

These words made the surrounding soldiers raise their heads, and even those who were taught a lesson today looked at their lord and pursed their lips.Some soldiers silently wiped their tears when they thought of the hard times in these years.

"This year's harvest is really bad, my lord." "Who would do this kind of thing in previous years?" "Yeah, although it was bitter in previous years, you can have something to eat." "There will be wars in a few days. If there is no food distribution, who will be will come again”

No one can know what the citizens think of the lord in their hearts.But these soldiers loved the lord very much.They were all very afraid that the bishop would reduce the allocation of resources in their territory because of this incident.So they all said good things.

"It's almost there, Lord Garvey." The adult who had been silent all this time suddenly opened his mouth, making the surroundings quiet.They watched him look away from the sky and said, "It's getting dark, let's go back to the city."

""

After returning to the castle, George and others rested in a living room arranged by the baron, waiting for the start of dinner.

Compared with Johannes' castle, this castle has not suffered a catastrophe, so the luxurious decoration and dazzling collections have been well preserved.Including those carpets, they are often taken care of.

It seems that the baron who has been crying poor does not lack the stuttering of the servants.

There are many such luxuriously decorated rooms in the castle, and the things inside are also things passed down from generation to generation.While the knights took off their iron boots and untied their mail armor to rest and chat, George stared at the silver decorations in a daze.

"My lord, that guy named Garvey is obviously acting." "Yes, I saw a lot of food in the castle, including wine and meat." "He also arranged a lot of beautiful maids to entertain him." Us." "I heard that there are some beautiful girls who were forcibly brought here in the past two days."

"Oh, get it here by force." George looked back from a silver oil painting frame, feeling a little curious, "Aren't you going to eat it?"

"It seems that everyone who comes here will have something to eat, but I heard that some girls are still unwilling." Martin said.

When George and the others went out with the baron, these restless guys also took a stroll outside.After someone started the conversation, they couldn't help but chat.

"I heard that some girls are very famous in the city, and the lord specifically doesn't allow her to marry." "Being the lord is comfortable cough cough." "There are still some people in the city who live well, and they don't need to eat." " But it's also strange, many girls are unwilling to enter this castle." "Haven't you heard of a legend about virgins?"

Listening to the chatter of this group of people, George slowly lost his mind.

In his earlier chitchat with Garvey, Garvey had mentioned the refugees who had been sent to Johannes.George didn't say much about it, but he said nonsense, "Of course I'm going to make wine."

This sentence is very suitable for those who are pampered in the end of the world.After Garvey heard it, he seemed to believe it.And he mentioned the matter of beautiful women and wine as he liked.

The two talked for a long time

And George also specifically mentioned the pregnant woman, which made Baron Garvey's eyes very strange.

After feeling his thoughtful gaze, George quickly rounded up his words, saying that he still likes young and beautiful women.

But he hopes that when this guy sends people to the shelter in the future, he will send more pregnant women who are about to give birth and the elderly who are dying.If they can give birth in the territory and spend their old age in peace, it will solve the resource he is most lacking now.

Of course, he will control a number, after all, the main labor is still those men.

"I don't know what my lord is thinking. You didn't see the scene today. If it were me, I would get angry on the spot." "Hey, these people risked their lives to harvest so much food, but they can't eat it. It's really bad." This is the first time that I hate these noble gentlemen coughing." "I heard that there is meat and wine, but I was still very hungry. After hearing what you said, I lost my appetite."

These knights are usually deeply instilled by George's flickering, so everyone regards the most upright knight in the fairy tale as their own.So they all like to meddle in their own business.

But there are some things that George doesn't think so.
